Sorry Bob cross posted there.I can see their reasons and he was honest about itbut I guess it will happen with all the banks sooner or later.I don't think any bank is any better than any other though...so thats another problem.I was going to leave them this morning when I got that letter.

Well if you can get a better deal at another bank i would leave..what about that matched overdraft deal? I think its on quidco, sorry not very with it at the moment and can'r remember name of bank..

Will look about.I also need good credit interest as usually I'm quite a bit in credit.No harm in looking though...maybe I will find something good.I need it to have a good internet banking and also must be able to go into a branch to deposit.Theres a load of good reviews about FD but is that only an internet bank.I deal with a lot of cash.Will have to have a read up.

I would certainly look into it..i think the Abbey are offering a decent rate of interest on current accounts, but i would also look at all the banks, and sweeping money into savings pots as well.

only A+L and HSBC on quidco!!!!.....both aren't as good as Halifax.Also checked out FD and the amount of charges they have in their small print is unbelievable..so that's those two out.Off to check Abbey out now...

Great minds must think alike as it is just where i have been as well.

Abbey looks ok as they match the o/d or 8% interest...I have my mortgage with them.I will give it some thought though.A lot of people say Abbey are awful so I don't know what to do really.Off to the banking budgetting board now xx

I have to say that sweat by FD..they may not pay as much interest as other but their service is second to none...if youre interested pm me as we can both benefit lol but even if Lloyds, shat west & others offered bonus woundlt go for it! Was with FD but they dont do student ac so switched for a decade but soon went back...like a bank family IYKWIM!
Well done on all those vouchers Fab Keep meaning to do mine instead of deliting em! Great that new ar on the way & sure you will debt bust soon!!

Afternoon all...quite happy today..did a 11o point survey for lightspeed and two 50p you gov ones before work today.Had a good day at work and DH had a good night last night.Checked online banking and the £1k from Gala had gone in the other should be in on monday.So finances turning better so should be able to get back on top soon.
Rang Vauxhall today to check progress on car and he didn't have any news but had e-mailed them yesterday at 4pm and not received e-mail back so it will be checked up on on monday.I don't expect it will be long now anyway.
I have to do some paperwork later about the loss of earnings etc...so will do that after tea and post on monday recorded delivery...got a bit of washing to do so will get on with that also after tea.
Hope you've all had a good day x
